We discussed wells awhile back.
I worked on mine yesterday, cut the casing off installed a tee with a 2" ball valve.
Also put a submersible pump in running off my Changfa clone.
Still flowing after two years.

Oh, to be able to have water bubble up out of the ground like that!   Why do you need the pump!?  :)

It has about 3' of head, pump is to pump large volume to a spray tank and to pressurize domestic water supply tank.
I plan on using the natural flow for cooling.
I may run a open drive compressor with the Listeroid and use the water flow as a heat exchange.

Let me know how that works out. I've given somewhat the same plan a casual thought or two.
